Is there a way to fix the Recipient's ssn on turbotax when filing a 1095-A? It's supposed to be his ssn, like on the physical form. On turbotax, it shows up as mine.

This is through the Health Insurance Marketplace. He is covered, I am not. TurboTax says I am healthcare recipient. Also has my ssn on the digital form. I cannot figure out how to correct this.

It has him as the recipient, and my name for "Recipient's Spouse". It has his social on the physical form, not mine.

Assume that you are filing as Married Filing Jointly.  Since the Form 1095-A is for both of you, it does not matter whose SS number is listed first on the 1095-A.  Just enter the form and continue with the section until it completes.

Delete the form and redo it. As you enter the Healthcare section, the program will ask to whom the 1095-A belongs. Then you can select the proper person.

 

Open your return in TurboTax. 

  • In the left side bar, select Tax ToolsTools.
  • In the pop-up window Tool Center, choose Delete a form.
  • Select Delete next to the form/schedule/worksheet and follow the onscreen instructions

This doesn’t work, thank you.

What happened when you tried it? Is the person your spouse or a dependent?
